Knit & Purl Mama notes: I am HEAVY on the cinnamon both on top of the apples & on top of the cake once the batter is over the apples. I've sometimes used baking Walnuts or baking almonds to sprinkle on top, which are really good on the cake!

Tonight we went out for dinner with my in-laws. Mack has this obsession with lemons right now, even though he doesn't like the taste... (Can you tell!?). He's too funny. We all came back after dinner for some delicious apple cake. Yum!

I saw this today: "As you may have heard, we are sorry to share that Bloglines will officially shut down on October 1, 2010." What!?? That's how I read my blogs. What am I going to do?? Does anyone have experience with Google Reader? I don't want to rely on blogger to read my blog as not all the blogs I read are blogger blogs. Trying to figure out how to go about reading my blogs. What other service do you guys use? I am going to have to start saving all my tutorials and stuff elsewhere... grr... Not too happy about this - and not sure why I only found out about this now, instead of earlier this month when it was announced. I wish I had more than a week to sort this out.

Today's Link Love:- This photo. TOO darn cute.- I wanted one of these when they came out for the boys. I found it pricey to buy. I finally had enough pampers points to order one for baby 3.

oh, i thought you knew about bloglines!! i've been depending on google reader ever since i heard the news about bloglines and it's okay. you just import all your blogs from bloglines into the google reader. Plus google reader already has your blogs that you are updated about via blogger so there may be duplicates. the problem i have with google reader is that you have to mark everything as read (in order for it to delete them) rather than just scrolling through (and bloglines NOT saving those posts) but saving the ones you want to read for later (when you mark them). does that make sense? apple picking looked like fun! why didn't you guys go pumpkin picking as well?

I also use reader and think it's great. I haven't found that I need to actually mark things as read though... I also just scroll through. Maybe it depends on which view you're using. I actually mostly use an app called reeder on the iPhone rather than the web interface because it's just quicker for me and it's been great.

So cute that you went apple picking. I remember going with my brother's daycare. Can't wait to take B!
